​Hi ThemeNectar.

Still loving this theme, thanks for the constant updates! I was looking for a way to request features and/or a feature wish-list, but couldn’t find one… So here we go with my makeshift version for now :)

1 – it would be awesome if we could add IMDB.com to the social-media options

2 – a way to right-align the logo/header would be nice

3 – or a way to have the off-canvas menu pop out on the left

(maybe this can be a thing with feature voting options etc. since I suspect a few people to have ideas)​

Hey L-rac, glad to hear! :)

Thanks for the requests, i’ve added them to the wishlist.

Cheers

1. How can I make the navigation header and footer boxed, yet keep the rest of the site Not boxed? http://site-tonight.com/example1/ https://www.chobani.com/ has an awesome looking footer/header w this effect and I want to mimic it (w your help)

2. Noticed there’s options for the phone number in the nav header, but not one in the footer, is there any easy way to integrate this?

3. Feature request, the the flickity carousel is the best looking testimonial carousel ever BUT the text on the left is super hard to edit, I had to copy the code from a text block into this, and had to mess w css spacing, which wasn’t fun. Would love more controls on this.

Hey SiteTonight,

1. In the header navigation > layout related tab of the Salient options panel, disable the option for “Full Width Header”. However to create an overlap like shown in your example URL would require some custom modding

2. You can add a phone number through a text widget in Appearance > widgets

3. I’ve noted this down on the wishlist :)

Great work on this theme. Quick question: With a Nectar numbered list, is there a way to disable the vertical line after the last item? I can probably figure out how to isolate with CSS, but thought I’d check to see if I’m missing something.

Hey clayasbury,

The line is set to 100% height of the entire parent container element for each list item. Therefore new css logic would be required. Here’s an example:


.nectar-icon-list:after {
    display: none;
}

body .nectar-icon-list-item { margin-bottom: 0; padding-bottom: 60px; }

.nectar-icon-list > div:not(:last-child):after  {
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    content: ' ';
    z-index: 1;
    width: 1px;
    background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
    height: 100%;
    top: 15px;
    left: 15px;
}

Cheers

That did the trick – thanks!

Glad to hear clayasbury :)

Hey! I have a couple of questions in regards to the woocommerce part of the theme:

1. Empty cart page “return to shop button” – how am I able to change link and text for this button.

2. When an item is in the cart, there is a little notification number. How is it possible to change this colour? My issues is that my nav bar is black and so is the notification circle.

Thanks!

Hey A_K,

1. That’s a default part of WooCommerce and would require modding via a filter: https://www.skyverge.com/blog/change-woocommerce-return-to-shop-button/

2. Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab

 body #header-outer a.cart-contents .cart-wrap span {
   background-color: #3452ff!important;
} 

Cheers

Hi we’ve got a couple of questions regarding the ‘Video Lightbox’ element.

1. Is it possible or how can we remove the adverts which appear at the end of a YouTube video?

2. Is it possible or how do we allow a video to loop/repeat?

Thanks

Hey Micatuca,

In the Salient options panel > general settings > functionality tab you can switch your theme lightbox to “fancybox3” to remove the related videos from displaying at the end. In regards to forcing the video to keep looping, that unfortunately would require custom JS modding as of now

Hi, cheers for this.

This site is going live today and the aforementioned issue is still causing us problems. We have a video that should be pening up in a lightbox. It plays on Desktops, plays on iPads but will not play on mobiles. Do you know what this could be?

Hey Micatuca,

could you kindly share the page URL so I can take a look to test?

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

I have a question regarding the portfolio element in the page builder, I’m looking for a way to select specific portfolio items to link to either a separate page or to open in a lightbox without using multiple portfolio page builder elements?

Best regards,

Hey JayAarts, thanks for elaborating :) You can link a project to a custom URL by using the “external project URL” field, available when editing any project https://ibb.co/g1cdp9

Hello,

I’ve tried that: so portfolio to Lightbox and then for custom pages a redirect. Result: opens in lightbox. Is it possible for you to have private contact/chat so I can show you the issue?

Hey JayAarts,

please reach out in regards via the contact form on my author page https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Thanks in advance

Hi, we’re having problems with the “Add to Cart” buttons that show on hover for a product. Is there any way to identify the cookie they’re using, so we can exclude only it, and not the whole page? The same for the bag icon in the menu bar? If there isn’t a way to do this, is there a way to disable them?

Yeah. I found that option. But I’m only talking about the add to cart buttons that appear on the shop and category pages (or related products, etc), and only when you hover over the product tiles. Those buttons are not working with Flywheel’s default caching. Any chance you could reach out to them and work with them to figure out why? The normal WooCommerce “add to cart” buttons on the product pages work just fine.

If you’re interested in making it work well you can reach out to them here: https://getflywheel.com/wordpress-support/#contactus and reference site barefut.com. We’ve had several support tickets open with them to get this sorted.

Hey FiddlerStudios, the core add to cart button functionality is handled all by WooCommerce rather than Salient itself – have you done a quick test to verify that the issue you’re facing with them only occurs with Salient active?

Yeah, we’ve done extensive testing. With caching off, everything is fine. But with caching on, only those hover-based buttons stop working. It’s very strange, and I recognize that they just hit the “add to cart” URL for the product, but for some reason they fail to add to cart, where the normal WC add to cart buttons work fine. Flywheel is testing further and will likely figure out a way to make their caching work with the theme. But something is at least slightly different, causing them not to work with their current caching. I thought you might cast some light or point them to exactly how it works, and therefore what might be causing the issue….

Hi #TN While I am clicking like button on any blog page, it leads to the love button. How can I change that love button to like button even after like the blog? link – https://www.s-squaresystems.com/blogs/

Hey santhi_lakshmi,

Kindly open a ticket in regards via the support forum in regards:

https://themenectar.ticksy.com

I purchased the theme but I forget the credentials, that’s why I created another account and asking for the solution.

Hey santhi_lakshmi, please reach out to Envato to get your purchase ID attached to this account so we can assist you going forward: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821620-Contact-Us

Created a pricing table on homepage which worked great until I went back and saved my page a second time. After I saved the page my pricing table editor box content disappears. I will lose all details in the box. I always have to delete the pricing table section and add it over. It will save fine but if I go back to the page and click save all elements inside the editor box will disappear.

Hey muntzdesigns,

I would need to check out the backend of the page to inspect the setup further, could you kindly open a ticket in regards via the support forum with your admin credentials so we can take a further look into this?

Hi, is there any way I can center align the logo in the mobile version of the header. It’s currently left aligned with the burger menu on the right.

Many thanks Paul

Hey Paul,

Add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab

@media only screen and (max-width: 1000px) and (min-width: 1px) {
body #header-outer header#top .span_3 {
    text-align: center!important;
}
}

Cheers

Header Logo Shrink does not work unless I have Body Border (Passepartout) disabled. Please advise.

Hey Brian987511,

That’s intentionally disabled when using a body border, if you can share your URL I could provide you with a workaround

Cheers

Ok, I disabled it and worked it out in css already. Thanks

I am using the portfolio Full Width layout but in the range 1300px to 1600px there is only two columns with a huge gap to the right. Please advise on how fix this.

I’m doing a redesign so it’s only local right now. You should be able to easily recreate with a full width layout and wide masonry images. If you can’t I’ll send a link when it’s up. Let me know. I’ll just patch it for now.

I’d rather not leave it broken on the live website for you to check out actually. Is there an email I can send theme options to or a link to our staging server?

Hey Brian987511, you can reach out via the contact form on my author page here: https://themeforest.net/user/themenectar

Is it possible to have full screen rows with a normal scroll, rather than one page scroll? I love having full screen rows selected, but don’t want to have it jump to each row whenever someone scrolls up or down.

Hey alisonleon,

That’s not possible with the page full screen rows option, however you could instead turn that off and simply use the “Full height row?” checkbox on each individual page builder row. That will allow the same design, but allow for normal scrolling

Cheers

Hi there, thanks again for the best wordpress theme ever! :D

Just have a question, I need to add a small paragraph (25 words approx.) below the page header title. How could I increase the length of the page header subtitle input field? Currently in the front end, it won’t show more than 12 words approx, and in the backend the page edit screen will crop all the text upon page reload too.

Thank you!!

Thanks for getting back to me :) The specific reason is that I can’t setup a regular row to function like that with a transparent header nav in the portfolio pages. See example attached: https://prnt.sc/kyfqjg

To be honest, not being able to use transparent header navigation in my single portfolio pages (unless I use a page header) is a bit annoying and preventing me from using your theme in more of my projects. Currently, there’s no way to have a single portfolio page with transparent header and a fullscreen image/video with a play button, for instance. I would need to embed the play button into the page header text fields, which breaks the wordpress edit page. Same if you need to have a small paragraph as I was originally mentioning. Apart from those small things, your Salient theme is absolutely perfect :)

Hey ivanute, thanks for elaborating further :)

Are you adding any tags into the subtitle text area for your paragraph? The field should allow as many words as you enter (although it would get hard to edit since the field is small) – however it’s not capable of storing HTML or quote tags since it’s a standard text input. I’ve also noted the idea on the wishlist to allow the transparent header on projects for a custom top level row setup as well

Cheers

Hello, after the update, I find that a lot of custom code suggested by your team doesn’t seem to work anymore. e.g., some errors indicating use of !important. Can you suggest something about this then?

Hey JosEther,

Please share your URL and list the custom CSS you’re referring to so I can take a look

Cheers

URL: www.etherdesign.in

Hey JosEther, I’m seeing quite a few of those snippets actiely working on your site. For example, this CSS:
body.ascend #search-outer #search input[type=”text”] {

color: #ccc!important;

height: auto!important;

font-size: 60px!important;

text-align: center!important;

}

is taking effect: https://ibb.co/io5rp9:

The ones that are not working are using ”#post-area” as a selector, for example these:

 body #post-area.masonry article.post .post-meta {
     display: none!important;
}
 .single-post .row ,.single-post #post-area > article .content-inner {
     padding-bottom: 0px !important;
}

”#post-area” is was changed to ”.post-area” a few releases ago

This is a great theme, but where can I change the menu font? (I use the Chinese), thanks

Thanks ikiyamay, you can alter the navigation font in the Salient options panel > typography tab > Navigation Font field – Salient provides Google fonts to choose from. If you need to implement a custom font, check out this in regards: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/9773/

Thank you sir, this is very helpful

You’re welcome ikiyamay :)

Thanks in advance

Hello, I have this issue only with Safari, I don’t see the animation and the back side of the block. I’m using the last version of the theme. Thank you

Hey sdoganati, try to add this into the custom css box located in the Salient options panel > general settings > css/script related tab

http://prntscr.com/kxkvbj Why a background gradient shows up on Firefox but not on Chrome???

Hey pokermind, I checked the URL on Chrome on a mac and windows and can see it display – can you please let me know what version of the browser you’re using?

69.0.3497.100, up to date it says. Weird then.

That’s quite strange pokermind, have you been able to replicate it on more than one machine?

Need add a slider at my home page. Please Help me

Hey willyitc7,

Have you opened a ticket in regards yet? We responded a couple days ago to your last comment:

If you’re trying to place a slider above your blog, instead of setting “Your homepage displays: Your latest posts” in Settings > reading, change it to “Your homepage displays: A static page” and select your custom built page with the slider added and blog element below it.

If you’d like us to set up an example for you please open a ticket in regards https://themenectar.ticksy.com

Cheers
